LEI Resolution

The LEI URL can also be used in places where you have used the LEI code. LEI.INFO will resolve this address to the HTML page when used in a browser. Especially for data-savvy agents, the LEI.INFO will resolve the URL to any data format requested. (see below for the list of formats).

Exploring Entity Data

Legal Form: Presents the nature of the business, such as Corporation, LLC or Inc

Registration Authority: Government body that registered the legal entity

Legal Jurisdiction: The geographic jurisdiction for the legal entity

Legal and Headquarters Address: Mailing address for both legal and headquarters

Show on Map: a feature that allows you to review the office locations through Google Maps

Section 2: In this section, you will get additional details from the LEI concerning the organization

However, if your application allows you to specify the content type via the HTTP Accept header, you can request multiple other formats, by assigning the specific values to the “Accept” key in the header:

application/trig

application/n-quads

application/ld+json

application/owl+xml

text/turtle

application/trix

text/n3

text/plain

text/application/x-nquads

text/xml
